The attention of the proper Authorities is called to the dangerons condition of the canal bridge at the foot of Mound street. When the steamers of the Fire Department passed over it on Saturday afternoon, it not only sank considerably out of line, but cracked so suggestively of collape, that those-n the engines began calculating tiieir chances of escape by jumping. The-bridge should be strengthened. Another Scbimuagk Ovfr thk Biver.

The rt quest was promptly complied with, and their engine in a short time left Third and State streets in a very favorable condition for the passage over them of the imposing procession, and the alighting at the Church doors of the many relatives and friends of the lamented dead. Akothfr Suicidk. We learned at a late hour . last "night that ' Frederick Beck, a late resident ot. the southern portion of the city, had committed suicide by taking poison. His body was found on the river bank below the Harrrisbnrg bridge." and two papers of substance marked "Arsenic," were in bis pockets. We understand that he had had a quarrel with his wife, and that he had said he was "going away . to stay." He was a young man about 30 years of age, and leaves a wile and f ur children. The Coroner was notified, and affer examining tlie body, delerred a post-mortem until this morning at 10 o'clock. The lateness of the hour prevtntcd a lull report of the case. FUNERAL OF MR. DESHLER. The Services at the Church THE RCflBER ATTENDANCE. A GOOD MAN HAS DEPARTED. The funeral of the late David W. Desh ler, one of our oldest and most highly valued and respected citizens, took place yesterday afternoon at the First Presby terian Church, corner ot State and Third streets. The remains of the lamented dead were accompanied from his late residence on Broad street, In the following order: Rev W. R. Marshall, Pastor of the First Presbyterian Clrurch. Rev. J. L Richards, Rector of Trinity Protestant Episcopal Church. Dr. Starling Loving, the physician of the deceased. ; ' " " ' The following delegation of old citizans friend of the deceased, followed in order: Frsnt is Stewart E?q., J..G. Miller, Eq, Dr. William M. Awl, Orange Johnson, Esq., Col. Joseph Leiby, Robert Neil, Esq. OrUUao HeyU Et?q . D. Tallmadge, Esq. The casket containing the remains fol lowed, conducted by the. following pall bearers: Jadre N. H. Swane. Pnn. 8. Galloway. 0. . Henater Tharaaaa. William L. gallivant, Jndae J. Swaa. . . W ill. a A. Halt, . . Judge J. L. Bate. John L. tiill. or. The chief inouroeis.ollowed in the or der of their ages, the eldest son with his family taking precedence. , Xbw Mayor, the City- Council, the Bank ers of the city and the officers of the Gas Company followed in order." The casket was borne Into the church, and deposited on A tablet in front of, the altar. . As it entered the west aisle, a vol untary was execnted on the organ.by Miss Emma McCarter, the low sweet tones of which echoed softly to the roof of the spacious church, and seemed to hallow the mournful occasion, robbing the couqueror Death of bis worst terrors, and associating the miad with exalted matters even in his very presence. J The casket was of the choicest rose wood, heavily finished in silver; but that about it which mosttx.ited the feel ings ot admiration were the beautiful donations of wreaths, the tastefully prepared emblems of Hope and Faith, the graceful display, of ; immortelles. Tender .hands, noved by loving hearts, had arranged them, and bright were the sacred teardrops which still quivered on their pure leaves. A massive si) rer plate on the lid ot the casket bore this Inscription: , DAVID WAGNER DESHLER. Born January 19th. 1792. ! - Died July 30th, 18G9. ' 1 " " The services began by a chant from the choir, rendering the beautiful hymn : "Whr should we start and fear to die. Or shake at death's alarms ; Tis but the voire which J ejus sends To call us to his arms." Rev. Mr. Marshall then.delivered the following address Gathered to-day to perform the an- propriate funeral services of Mr. Deshler, your serious r-neeuons may well take the form of the Psalmist's inquiry, "What man i he that liveth and shall not see death ?" There are cases of death in which human mortality has a peculiar exemplification ; and this, I think, is such. Some men seem to be endowed by their Creator, or furnished by circumstances, with a peculiar adaptation to the processes of this world's lite, and with a happy adjustment to its higher and better forms. And if in any exemption Irom death were possible, we might expect to find ic ia them. And if in any case death seems to be totally outof harmony with life, aud hence cornea as an abrupt and violent termination ot that which did not appear to tend naturally towards it, it is the case ot such men. And in point of fact 1 doubt not that harmony with the processes and circumstances of lifedoes prolong the pe riod of jts continuance ; jvnue orttrte other hand, tlie larring and rasping "of ja dishar mony "with life! wear out it terrrr more rapidly. A case of ther former kind, as I couceive it, you have before you to-day. Mr. Desiiier'a whole history exhibits a quite peculiar adaptation to life, and an unusual harmony of spirit with many ol its higher reLSonsfbilities and nobler enjoy ment. It Is seen, first, in his social character. No man can live happy, or live well, and few men can live long, who are out of harmony and out of sympathy with society. The man who declines to be a part, recep tive ana coutrtoutive or the great human family, that brotherhood of mutual help and ei'loyment, puts himself in sharp aud self-destroying antagonism with some of the more important conditions of human livings That mistake Mr. Deshler cer tainly never committed. Descended from an iiODoranie ancestry, ne doubtless inherited those agreeable qualities which are usually much Improved by the successive re-tlneineuts ot a virtuous line. Accordingly. 4iis tt arty, graceful manners, his prompt, true politeness, always certified him a natural gentleman one who is necessarily a recipieut as well as a dispenser of the pleasures of social intercourse. This natural tendency mIso. carefully and wiselv cherished, produced habits which gave au unusual freshness and vivacity to his old age, made him the cotemporary ot even fie young, brought him Into familiar ac quaintance with them, to tfhare in their (.yuipume, to De interested la their welfare, aud to help them in their struggles HaDUs, too, which (cave lilui unusual pleasure in thi association of" his own taiuily. The homes ot tew children have been so brightened, cheered and enlivened by the constant visits of an aged parent, as were the homes of bis children. For this reason, though tor many years deprived of his life companion, his lite was not lonely nor so cially useless. Second. His adaptation to life Is seen in his success. A man cannot succeed by honest, per severing industry who baa not a hap py adaptation to toe requirements ol liie. Perhaps propriety forbids that much be said of thit; nevertheless, true success U honorable, and deserves to be held up as an example to stimulate virtuous effort iu others. Mr. Desbler was not the mere child of au nncourted fortune, nor did be, like many others, only rise upon the issue ot a sudden turn of favor. He conquered and accomplished real success by the application of his powers to' the earnest processes ot lite. Coming to this place tlity-two years ago, and while ic was little more than a village, ho may be regarded as one of its ear y citlz?us,and associated with others in its roughest and hardest struggles, and sharing with them ia the privations and the toils, the burdens and the enterprises which have developed this into a rich and prosperous city, and Ohio into a great SUte. I need not tell you, who are at farthest but the second generation, and pie-serve complete the .legends of those eaily times, that there were then tremenloui difficulties to be overcome, mighty obstacles to be conquered. Nor need I speak particularly ot the part he Oore, for we all know that in such conditions of lite, men of unsuitable endowments, habits aud inclinations, inevitably fail. It he succeed. ed, that is a sufficient testimony to his qualities. Third. His adaptation to lite Is seen In his appreciation ot liie'a responsibilities and privileges. For thirty-seven years he has followed a pursuit which has necessarily brought niiu into business transactions with a very large number of persons persons, too, from all ranks and conditions, and ot ail habits, tempers aud tendencies. With what tiJeiity be discharged bis trust, and I with what regard to the interests and feel ings of other.-, 1 prefer to let others speak. A meeting of the Bankers of our city, held since his death, - : Xetolvd. That In the life and character " of Mr. Uesaler we reoogaix. those qualities of head and heart which oause a man to be respected and lored by h i fellow crtisena. As a banker, he was promp , accurate in jodaement, frank, ready to assume all proper responsibility, and faithful to the imeresteoaided m bra.- tiei was sympathetic and kind to those wboanplle to him in their nenesi- ttea. and ready e deal liberally with the misfortunes, nnd even leniently with the faults of others-and the success of his business life shows the wisdom of his conduct To young men h. was an encouraging end- true friend, and to the old a arise aad beneficent ooans,lior. In all his bnsiness career, he was a man of unquestioned integiityand unblemished honor. As a oit-ise", Mr. Desbler was enterprising and public spirited. Proud "f the city, ke encouraged and assisted in her public improvements; gave his countenance an 1 support to all hex institutions, and oneer-lullr bore his share of the publio burdens, and cont'ibuted to her charities. As a neighbor, he as cheerful hopeful, intelligent, courteous and f'indly. "with charity far all, and nalice towards none. And it it be the fact, as they further say, and I have no reason to doubt it, that "He leaves noenemies In a community in which he has lived aid been actively engaged lor more than half a century," there must hive been a singular combination of qualities in him, and general integrity and kindness must have been prominent .traits of his character. ' ' But I should do injustice to bis memory if 1 spoke, only of bis appreciation of the duties and privileges ot secular life. He also acknowledged the obligationa and prized the privileges of religion. Although never a member of the church, he was, I suppose, tor fifty years a regular attendant upon the, worship or 4od in tots - congregation And it Is. proper, per ns ps one to mm, u say, tnai, Having been baptized and probably confirmed in the Lutheran Church in early life, he always regarded himself as a member of the Church orCbrUt. ''fie was a memberof this crtrooratton. and always deeply-inter ested in its prosperity.- Tne Racordsot the Society associate few name?, after that of Dr. James Hoge, -longer ana more prominently with its progress. During nearly all that long period he was a trustee, and much of the Record is in his handwriting. He was one of the contractors tor the erection of the building formerly occupied by the Soci ety on Front street, and known as the Trin ity ; ana In leiiU be wasoneot a committee, of which Dr. Hoge and Judge Gustavus Swan were the other member, who selected the gronnds upon which this building stands, which location, wisely chosen, has always contributed to the prosperity ot t!ie Church. Thus, by the money that he ' gave, by the time he devoted, and by the iu-' terest he ever manifested, be testified his appreciation of the value of true relisiou. Now, I say, when such . a history is extended through so long a period, and enriched by .such . a vast - accu--mutation, of fxperieiice, it proves a very high degree of harmony with life itself, and adaptation to its various processes and forms. And yet we learn to-day tnat even that life is not exempt from death; that even to its smooth aud prosperous course there must be an end. Aud.it so, then, may we not with propriety, etquire: What man is he that liveth and shail not see death ? " Nor can we fail, then, to contemplate that event as one soon to befall each of us. If not he, then neither can we escape. You may live as well as he, peruana as long, but at last like him you must die. Let the living lay this to heart. In the midst of your activities, your associations and your ei.joyments,you may be building up a reputation and a fortune, but remember that you are also approaching death.- But that was perhaps a fact of uo very great importance, were it nut connected with the other fact, that death is but a transition from a temporal to an eternal state. Says the only authority we have upon the subject, "It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." Then, as you approach death, you approach the judgment and eternal destiny, your highest consideration, and your most important business is to prepare for that future by repentance and laitb in Jesus Christ, by a reception ot his free grace and a cousecration ot yourselves to his service. To the old people of this community, tbls death is an impressive warning. One after another you are passing away. Even now but lew are lelt, and tbey only tarrying a little tar the summons. Especially is it a voice ot admonition to the old people of this congregation. It is fust four and one half years since I to k this pastoral charge, and during that brief perio.1 I have been called to follow to Green Lawn the re mains of seven of the oldest of your number, and longest connected with the congregation. Doubtless many of the younger will die; but . it in the next four and one bait years God calls lor seven of the oldest, those who have passed three score aud ten, who of you will be taken, and who will be left? The voice of this occasion is to you all, "Be ye also ready." After the close of the services at the church, the procession was reformed, and proceeded to Green Liwn Cemetery,where the remains were interred according to the rites of the Protestant Episcopal Church, Rev. Mr. Richards officiating. The procession was the largest observed in our city on the occasion of the death ot a private citizen, nearly one hundred carriages being in line. The assemblage of citizens at the church and in the vicinity was very large, many hundreds being altogether unable to gain an entrance even to the vestibule. The feeling evident, among all was that a good man and a valuable citizen bad been called from the community by death. - Special meetings af Council. The death of Mr. David W. Deshler was the occasion ot a special meeting of the City Council on Saturday evening, at which time a committee, consisting of Messrs. Donaldson, Reinhard, Janney, Chad wick and President Naghten, was appointed to draft resolutions. The Council again assembled in its chamber yesterday afternoon, a half-past two o'clock, and was called to order by the President. Mr. Donaldson presented the following preamble and resolutions: " Whkrkas. It pleased Almighty God, on the morning of the 30th of July, to reniove from the earth David W. Deshler, a citizen of Columbus, whose lite for fifty years has been marked in the welfare of "this city, always- feeling a lively interest in whatever was tor tho welfare and prosperity of Columbus, and aiding with his means as well as with his advice, all improvements calculated to be for the advancement, happiness as well as the pleasures ot its citizens, and recognizing bis death as a public loss, we, the representative of the people, deem it but just to his memory that a public mark ot respect should be made; therefore bo it Resolved. That this Council will, as a body, attend his funeral this afternoon at 8 o'clock. -."-" Resolved. That a copy of the foresrolnir preamble and resolutions be forwarded to tho family of the deceased, and that a copy be furnished the papers ot" the city lor publication. After the unanimous adoption of the resolutions, Messrs. Donaldson and Reinhard pronounced eulogies upon the deceased, in which he was characterized as one of our ablest citizens, a true friend and an honest man, whose loss was deeply deplored. On motion, the Council adjourned to attend at the First Presbyterian Church. Tna Pionker Picnic. The comingplc-nin-of the Pioneers, at the Countv Fair Grounds, on SaturJay next, the 7ch, will be a grand affair. Everybody is invited. Following are two letters wuicb speak for themselves : I will be with you, the Lord willing, at the Pioneer Picnic, and will endeavor to have an old-fashioned song, to anold-fash-loucd tune, sung in an ola-tashioned way, Yours ever, "Johsi Gumnjcr." Wm. Stanberry writes to Senator Thur-man : I will with pleasure accept the invitation contained iu your letter, and will endeavor to arrive at Columbus, August 6tn." Mr. Stanberry Is 81 years of age, and among the oldest pioneers in the State. Raid on a Gambling Den. WHOLESALE ARItEST OP THE INMATES. Sporting Men In Jimlo. A DOI.YriJI, PROCESSION. For a number ol months past it has been a subject of general remark that a certain class of men of both colors, commonly de nominated "sporting wen," have been con ducting tho peculiar business of their pro fession in this city, with such well-laid and regulated plans of action as to escape detection by the proper authorities on the one part, and to earn for themselves the reputation in their own circles of the most successful dealers of faro in the country. This success In gambling, and accompanying Immunity from arrest, has emboldened the principal operators, who have not only strutted our street daily, gorgeous in fine linen and diamond jewelry, but who have also extended the limits ot their dens, going so tar even as to invade High street, and settle down in rooms almost under the eaves of a prominent church, which, by reason of extensive patronage, would lead to the conclusion that they were regarded as general head -quarters. These haunts have existed in other sec tions of the city, and in many instances of late the hard-earned wages of young mechanics and tradespeople have been depos ited with their proprietors. Much complaint has been made by those who should have received the wages of young men and others, who have been regular visitors at these dens, and have been losers In consequence. The Marshal, Captain Hannan, of the City Police, the Lieutenants, and the entire force of men on Dight duty, at length determined to suppress the nefarious business, and accordingly pro ceeded on Saturday night to each known locality in the city for the purpose of ar resting the Inmates. An extended trip tbrocghout the southern section of the city found all closed, quiet and dark, but on reaching Gay street, the house of a well known "Sport" was found to be in full blast. The place was surrounded by the force, an entrance was made, and the proprietor, his assistant, and thirty-six others, mostly young men, and about equally divided between whites and blacks, were arrested. Dire confusion followed the appearance of the blue-coats, and desperate resolves on the part of innoceut young men "out seeing a lriend, you know," or "hard at work in the store," or '"staving awhile with a sick friend," were frustrated by the police, who closed inviting windows, guarded narrow stairyways and presented inexorable and frowning fronts to begging and tender infancy. All statements as to how they got there were unheeded, and the line to the sta tion house was formed, ' and the order given to march. Doleful was the match, and prolific were the exjuses given by the captives relative to their- presence in the den, but the police kept tight hold of coat sleeves, and the station house was reached, and received its fall quota,. The entire party was before the Mayor, yesterday morning. The proprietor of the den was fined $20 and the costs, his as sistant $10 and the costs, aud the '-visitors" from one to four dollars and the costs each. Two Fires on Saturday. The Depart ment was called out shortly after 12 o'clock oa Saturday, aud proceeded to the prem ises owned by Dr. J. W.

In Satur day morning's issue of the Statesman, it was announced that Yoglegesang's newly organized and finely equipped brass band would probably play in the evening, in Capitol Square.

Jenkins, chairman of the State Central Committee of the Wells wing of the Republican party, having writteu .a letter to Dr. Gilmer, chairman of the Central Committee of the Walker wing of the Republican party, urging that the two shall reunite for carrying out Republican principles in the State, the latter writes a letter in reply, saying that the Walker Republicans left the Wells party because tbey were forced to do so, or oppose the policy of the President. After alluding to the almost unanimous endorsement of Repulican principles by the white men of the State, and asserting that the colored people, who were misled by the Wells leaders, are now flocking by hundreds to the Grant-Walker standard, he concludes as follows: "You ask for a coalition of the two wings of the Republican party. I cannot admit that the party is divided. On the contrary, I claim that theGrant-Walker party is tlie National Republican party of V r.inia, representing the policy of the President and of Congress, and as such has no division to heal. To tlie late Wells party, I have only to say, we shall gladly welcome you in our ranks, for we are unwilling to deprive any class ot citizens of the innumerable blessings that must flow to Virginia from an unequivocal enforce-ment of those National principleof which President Grant aud Congress are the bead and front."

As it entered the west aisle, a vol untary was execnted on the organ.by Miss Emma McCarter, the low sweet tones of which echoed softly to the roof of the spacious church, and seemed to hallow the mournful occasion, robbing the couqueror Death of bis worst terrors, and associating the miad with exalted matters even in his very presence. J The casket was of the choicest rose wood, heavily finished in silver; but that about it which mosttx.ited the feel ings ot admiration were the beautiful donations of wreaths, the tastefully prepared emblems of Hope and Faith, the graceful display, of ; immortelles. Tender .hands, noved by loving hearts, had arranged them, and bright were the sacred teardrops which still quivered on their pure leaves. A massive si) rer plate on the lid ot the casket bore this Inscription: , DAVID WAGNER DESHLER. Born January 19th. 1792. ! - Died July 30th, 18G9. ' 1 " " The services began by a chant from the choir, rendering the beautiful hymn : "Whr should we start and fear to die. Or shake at death's alarms ; Tis but the voire which J ejus sends To call us to his arms." Rev. Mr. Marshall then.delivered the following address Gathered to-day to perform the an- propriate funeral services of Mr. Deshler, your serious r-neeuons may well take the form of the Psalmist's inquiry, "What man i he that liveth and shall not see death ?" There are cases of death in which human mortality has a peculiar exemplification ; and this, I think, is such. Some men seem to be endowed by their Creator, or furnished by circumstances, with a peculiar adaptation to the processes of this world's lite, and with a happy adjustment to its higher and better forms. And if in any exemption Irom death were possible, we might expect to find ic ia them. And if in any case death seems to be totally outof harmony with life, aud hence cornea as an abrupt and violent termination ot that which did not appear to tend naturally towards it, it is the case ot such men. And in point of fact 1 doubt not that harmony with the processes and circumstances of lifedoes prolong the pe riod of jts continuance ; jvnue orttrte other hand, tlie larring and rasping "of ja dishar mony "with life! wear out it terrrr more rapidly. A case of ther former kind, as I couceive it, you have before you to-day. Mr. Desiiier'a whole history exhibits a quite peculiar adaptation to life, and an unusual harmony of spirit with many ol its higher reLSonsfbilities and nobler enjoy ment. It Is seen, first, in his social character. No man can live happy, or live well, and few men can live long, who are out of harmony and out of sympathy with society. The man who declines to be a part, recep tive ana coutrtoutive or the great human family, that brotherhood of mutual help and ei'loyment, puts himself in sharp aud self-destroying antagonism with some of the more important conditions of human livings That mistake Mr. Deshler cer tainly never committed. Descended from an iiODoranie ancestry, ne doubtless inherited those agreeable qualities which are usually much Improved by the successive re-tlneineuts ot a virtuous line. Accordingly. 4iis tt arty, graceful manners, his prompt, true politeness, always certified him a natural gentleman one who is necessarily a recipieut as well as a dispenser of the pleasures of social intercourse. This natural tendency mIso. carefully and wiselv cherished, produced habits which gave au unusual freshness and vivacity to his old age, made him the cotemporary ot even fie young, brought him Into familiar ac quaintance with them, to tfhare in their (.yuipume, to De interested la their welfare, aud to help them in their struggles HaDUs, too, which (cave lilui unusual pleasure in thi association of" his own taiuily. The homes ot tew children have been so brightened, cheered and enlivened by the constant visits of an aged parent, as were the homes of bis children. For this reason, though tor many years deprived of his life companion, his lite was not lonely nor so cially useless. Second. His adaptation to life Is seen in his success. A man cannot succeed by honest, per severing industry who baa not a hap py adaptation to toe requirements ol liie. Perhaps propriety forbids that much be said of thit; nevertheless, true success U honorable, and deserves to be held up as an example to stimulate virtuous effort iu others. Mr. Desbler was not the mere child of au nncourted fortune, nor did be, like many others, only rise upon the issue ot a sudden turn of favor. He conquered and accomplished real success by the application of his powers to' the earnest processes ot lite. Coming to this place tlity-two years ago, and while ic was little more than a village, ho may be regarded as one of its ear y citlz?us,and associated with others in its roughest and hardest struggles, and sharing with them ia the privations and the toils, the burdens and the enterprises which have developed this into a rich and prosperous city, and Ohio into a great SUte. I need not tell you, who are at farthest but the second generation, and pie-serve complete the .legends of those eaily times, that there were then tremenloui difficulties to be overcome, mighty obstacles to be conquered. Nor need I speak particularly ot the part he Oore, for we all know that in such conditions of lite, men of unsuitable endowments, habits aud inclinations, inevitably fail. It he succeed. ed, that is a sufficient testimony to his qualities. Third. His adaptation to lite Is seen In his appreciation ot liie'a responsibilities and privileges. For thirty-seven years he has followed a pursuit which has necessarily brought niiu into business transactions with a very large number of persons persons, too, from all ranks and conditions, and ot ail habits, tempers aud tendencies. With what tiJeiity be discharged bis trust, and I with what regard to the interests and feel ings of other.-, 1 prefer to let others speak. A meeting of the Bankers of our city, held since his death, - : Xetolvd. That In the life and character " of Mr. Uesaler we reoogaix. those qualities of head and heart which oause a man to be respected and lored by h i fellow crtisena. As a banker, he was promp , accurate in jodaement, frank, ready to assume all proper responsibility, and faithful to the imeresteoaided m bra.- tiei was sympathetic and kind to those wboanplle to him in their nenesi- ttea. and ready e deal liberally with the misfortunes, nnd even leniently with the faults of others-and the success of his business life shows the wisdom of his conduct To young men h. was an encouraging end- true friend, and to the old a arise aad beneficent ooans,lior. In all his bnsiness career, he was a man of unquestioned integiityand unblemished honor. As a oit-ise", Mr. Desbler was enterprising and public spirited. Proud "f the city, ke encouraged and assisted in her public improvements; gave his countenance an 1 support to all hex institutions, and oneer-lullr bore his share of the publio burdens, and cont'ibuted to her charities. As a neighbor, he as cheerful hopeful, intelligent, courteous and f'indly. "with charity far all, and nalice towards none. And it it be the fact, as they further say, and I have no reason to doubt it, that "He leaves noenemies In a community in which he has lived aid been actively engaged lor more than half a century," there must hive been a singular combination of qualities in him, and general integrity and kindness must have been prominent .traits of his character. ' ' But I should do injustice to bis memory if 1 spoke, only of bis appreciation of the duties and privileges ot secular life. He also acknowledged the obligationa and prized the privileges of religion. Although never a member of the church, he was, I suppose, tor fifty years a regular attendant upon the, worship or 4od in tots - congregation And it Is. proper, per ns ps one to mm, u say, tnai, Having been baptized and probably confirmed in the Lutheran Church in early life, he always regarded himself as a member of the Church orCbrUt. ''fie was a memberof this crtrooratton. and always deeply-inter ested in its prosperity.- Tne Racordsot the Society associate few name?, after that of Dr. James Hoge, -longer ana more prominently with its progress. During nearly all that long period he was a trustee, and much of the Record is in his handwriting. He was one of the contractors tor the erection of the building formerly occupied by the Soci ety on Front street, and known as the Trin ity ; ana In leiiU be wasoneot a committee, of which Dr. Hoge and Judge Gustavus Swan were the other member, who selected the gronnds upon which this building stands, which location, wisely chosen, has always contributed to the prosperity ot t!ie Church. Thus, by the money that he ' gave, by the time he devoted, and by the iu-' terest he ever manifested, be testified his appreciation of the value of true relisiou. Now, I say, when such . a history is extended through so long a period, and enriched by .such . a vast - accu--mutation, of fxperieiice, it proves a very high degree of harmony with life itself, and adaptation to its various processes and forms. And yet we learn to-day tnat even that life is not exempt from death; that even to its smooth aud prosperous course there must be an end. Aud.it so, then, may we not with propriety, etquire: What man is he that liveth and shail not see death ? " Nor can we fail, then, to contemplate that event as one soon to befall each of us. If not he, then neither can we escape. You may live as well as he, peruana as long, but at last like him you must die. Let the living lay this to heart. In the midst of your activities, your associations and your ei.joyments,you may be building up a reputation and a fortune, but remember that you are also approaching death.- But that was perhaps a fact of uo very great importance, were it nut connected with the other fact, that death is but a transition from a temporal to an eternal state. Says the only authority we have upon the subject, "It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." Then, as you approach death, you approach the judgment and eternal destiny, your highest consideration, and your most important business is to prepare for that future by repentance and laitb in Jesus Christ, by a reception ot his free grace and a cousecration ot yourselves to his service. To the old people of this community, tbls death is an impressive warning. One after another you are passing away. Even now but lew are lelt, and tbey only tarrying a little tar the summons. Especially is it a voice ot admonition to the old people of this congregation. It is fust four and one half years since I to k this pastoral charge, and during that brief perio.1 I have been called to follow to Green Lawn the re mains of seven of the oldest of your number, and longest connected with the congregation. Doubtless many of the younger will die; but . it in the next four and one bait years God calls lor seven of the oldest, those who have passed three score aud ten, who of you will be taken, and who will be left? The voice of this occasion is to you all, "Be ye also ready." After the close of the services at the church, the procession was reformed, and proceeded to Green Liwn Cemetery,where the remains were interred according to the rites of the Protestant Episcopal Church, Rev. Mr. Richards officiating. The procession was the largest observed in our city on the occasion of the death ot a private citizen, nearly one hundred carriages being in line. The assemblage of citizens at the church and in the vicinity was very large, many hundreds being altogether unable to gain an entrance even to the vestibule. The feeling evident, among all was that a good man and a valuable citizen bad been called from the community by death. - Special meetings af Council. The death of Mr. David W. Deshler was the occasion ot a special meeting of the City Council on Saturday evening, at which time a committee, consisting of Messrs. Donaldson, Reinhard, Janney, Chad wick and President Naghten, was appointed to draft resolutions. The Council again assembled in its chamber yesterday afternoon, a half-past two o'clock, and was called to order by the President. Mr. Donaldson presented the following preamble and resolutions: " Whkrkas. It pleased Almighty God, on the morning of the 30th of July, to reniove from the earth David W. Deshler, a citizen of Columbus, whose lite for fifty years has been marked in the welfare of "this city, always- feeling a lively interest in whatever was tor tho welfare and prosperity of Columbus, and aiding with his means as well as with his advice, all improvements calculated to be for the advancement, happiness as well as the pleasures ot its citizens, and recognizing bis death as a public loss, we, the representative of the people, deem it but just to his memory that a public mark ot respect should be made; therefore bo it Resolved. That this Council will, as a body, attend his funeral this afternoon at 8 o'clock. -."-" Resolved. That a copy of the foresrolnir preamble and resolutions be forwarded to tho family of the deceased, and that a copy be furnished the papers ot" the city lor publication. After the unanimous adoption of the resolutions, Messrs. Donaldson and Reinhard pronounced eulogies upon the deceased, in which he was characterized as one of our ablest citizens, a true friend and an honest man, whose loss was deeply deplored. On motion, the Council adjourned to attend at the First Presbyterian Church. Tna Pionker Picnic. The comingplc-nin-of the Pioneers, at the Countv Fair Grounds, on SaturJay next, the 7ch, will be a grand affair. Everybody is invited. Following are two letters wuicb speak for themselves : I will be with you, the Lord willing, at the Pioneer Picnic, and will endeavor to have an old-fashioned song, to anold-fash-loucd tune, sung in an ola-tashioned way, Yours ever, "Johsi Gumnjcr." Wm. Stanberry writes to Senator Thur-man : I will with pleasure accept the invitation contained iu your letter, and will endeavor to arrive at Columbus, August 6tn." Mr. Stanberry Is 81 years of age, and among the oldest pioneers in the State. Raid on a Gambling Den. WHOLESALE ARItEST OP THE INMATES. Sporting Men In Jimlo. A DOI.YriJI, PROCESSION. For a number ol months past it has been a subject of general remark that a certain class of men of both colors, commonly de nominated "sporting wen," have been con ducting tho peculiar business of their pro fession in this city, with such well-laid and regulated plans of action as to escape detection by the proper authorities on the one part, and to earn for themselves the reputation in their own circles of the most successful dealers of faro in the country. This success In gambling, and accompanying Immunity from arrest, has emboldened the principal operators, who have not only strutted our street daily, gorgeous in fine linen and diamond jewelry, but who have also extended the limits ot their dens, going so tar even as to invade High street, and settle down in rooms almost under the eaves of a prominent church, which, by reason of extensive patronage, would lead to the conclusion that they were regarded as general head -quarters. These haunts have existed in other sec tions of the city, and in many instances of late the hard-earned wages of young mechanics and tradespeople have been depos ited with their proprietors. Much complaint has been made by those who should have received the wages of young men and others, who have been regular visitors at these dens, and have been losers In consequence. The Marshal, Captain Hannan, of the City Police, the Lieutenants, and the entire force of men on Dight duty, at length determined to suppress the nefarious business, and accordingly pro ceeded on Saturday night to each known locality in the city for the purpose of ar resting the Inmates. An extended trip tbrocghout the southern section of the city found all closed, quiet and dark, but on reaching Gay street, the house of a well known "Sport" was found to be in full blast. The place was surrounded by the force, an entrance was made, and the proprietor, his assistant, and thirty-six others, mostly young men, and about equally divided between whites and blacks, were arrested. Dire confusion followed the appearance of the blue-coats, and desperate resolves on the part of innoceut young men "out seeing a lriend, you know," or "hard at work in the store," or '"staving awhile with a sick friend," were frustrated by the police, who closed inviting windows, guarded narrow stairyways and presented inexorable and frowning fronts to begging and tender infancy. All statements as to how they got there were unheeded, and the line to the sta tion house was formed, ' and the order given to march. Doleful was the match, and prolific were the exjuses given by the captives relative to their- presence in the den, but the police kept tight hold of coat sleeves, and the station house was reached, and received its fall quota,. The entire party was before the Mayor, yesterday morning. The proprietor of the den was fined $20 and the costs, his as sistant $10 and the costs, aud the '-visitors" from one to four dollars and the costs each. Two Fires on Saturday. The Depart ment was called out shortly after 12 o'clock oa Saturday, aud proceeded to the prem ises owned by Dr. J. W. Hamilton, on the north side of Long street, us t east of Center alley, which was discovered to be on tire in the roof. By the promptness of the Department, the lire, which threatened to be extensive, was subdned, and resulted in the destruction of the roof. Loss about $400, fully covered by insurance. A dt- f active flue was the caue. Later in the day, another alarm was sonnded, occasioned by the roof burning effa small lrarae house owned by Frederick Selbach, and occupied by Mr. II. Twigg-The house was on Friend street, between Front and Scioto, and was damaged to the extent ot about $300. It was not insured. The fire was occasioned by an improperly protected stove pipe passing through the roof, which latter had just been renewed. But for the activity of the Department, a large fire would have raged in this locality, as a number of old frame buildings were in close proximity. Number of Arrest by tbk Police.

In Satur day morning's issue of the Statesman, it was announced that Yoglegesang's newly organized and finely equipped brass band would probably play in the evening, in Capitol Square. The events of the evening established two important facts. First, the great need of free concerts experienced by our people, and, secondly, the value of the Statesman as a medium through which to meet the masses in this community. No other paper made the announcement of the expected concert, and yet, so generally had the good news spread in all quarters of the city, that the people were iu attend anee by thousands. The Baud was not yet ready for a public concert, but we are gratified to know that it shortly will be, when our citizens may expect a rare musical treat.

Jenkins, chairman of the State Central Committee of the Wells wing of the Republican party, having writteu .a letter to Dr. Gilmer, chairman of the Central Committee of the Walker wing of the Republican party, urging that the two shall reunite for carrying out Republican principles in the State, the latter writes a letter in reply, saying that the Walker Republicans left the Wells party because tbey were forced to do so, or oppose the policy of the President. After alluding to the almost unanimous endorsement of Repulican principles by the white men of the State, and asserting that the colored people, who were misled by the Wells leaders, are now flocking by hundreds to the Grant-Walker standard, he concludes as follows: "You ask for a coalition of the two wings of the Republican party. I cannot admit that the party is divided. On the contrary, I claim that theGrant-Walker party is tlie National Republican party of V r.inia, representing the policy of the President and of Congress, and as such has no division to heal. To tlie late Wells party, I have only to say, we shall gladly welcome you in our ranks, for we are unwilling to deprive any class ot citizens of the innumerable blessings that must flow to Virginia from an unequivocal enforce-ment of those National principleof which President Grant aud Congress are the bead and front."
